It’s a pretty good game so far, hopefully another draw coming up. 
I know nobody likes Chris Scott but it is an incredible job he is doing at Geelong

    Absolutely. Ain't it just about the clearances.

    Great game to watch 

    Our blueprint is on show on how to beat both of them, break even with the clearances against Carlton & forward pressure against the the Cats

    Then we can beat them ….. hopefully

    I’m worried about folks who wanna read about how we’re gonna get belted in the next two matches. They’ll undoubtedly go to the pregame thread, and won’t think to come to this thread since it’s a NON-MFC THREAD!!!

    As much as it is popular to bag Geelong, they are exceptionally well drilled. Carlton work so hard to win contested possessions but the Cats sit off and wait for the turnover. They move the ball with system which means you don't need contested beasts like Carlton, Melbourne and others have.

    Surprised he’s been subbed off, thought he’d be straight back on. No doubt he’ll be back next week.

    Serious question. Why is Cripps allowed to get away with throwing the ball so much?

    Because the AFL has already decided on a Carlton flag this year, just like they decided Collingwood last year

    We will beat Geelong. Our midfield is overdue to fire and too strong for the Cats. If any team can cover Hawkins and Cameron we can. This scoreline has massively flattered them thus far. Return for much lower entries is remarkable against an undermanned Carlton defence. I'm confident.

    Sounds like a Carlton home game when they score. Surely Geelong would be better to bank a cool $1 mill playing at KP and restricting the opposition to 150 tickets.

    A flag & 3 top 4 finishes and yet our club can’t attract a gun fwd, watching Camero, the  blues fwds & the best we can do is Brown with a banged knee and fortunate it lasted in 2021. Yet we continue to try and turn defenders into fwds, Tmac , Petty & Turner

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
